    Aug 6 2025
    The sudden proposed freeze of federal grant funding caused widespread panic around the country. Go behind-the-scenes with me as a federal grant expert and former federal employee as I shed light on what’s happening to federal financial assistance (including grants). I’ll provide a chronological breakdown of the proposed pause, provide insight on why the announced pause was so alarming to many people in the US, shed light on all the different grantees around the country and the around the world, explain why certain grants are targeted, and even provide the backstory on the U.S. Department of Education and why it is being targeted for a shutdown. #federalfunding #federalgrants #trump #grantfunds #governmentgrants ABOUT ME: I’m the founder and CEO of Grants Works and the lead trainer for Grants Works Academy and I have over 18 years of federal grants experience.

  • Ep 2 - Hard to Believe Restructuring of USAID: What Happens Next?

    Ep 2 - Hard to Believe Restructuring of USAID: What Happens Next?
    Aug 6 2025
    For this episode, I dive into the massive restructuring of USAID (United States Agency for International Development). In just two weeks, the agency has gone from over 10,000 employees to about 611. It has been folded into the State Department, its website has disappeared save for a few archive pages, and masking tape has been used to cover its name on its DC headquarters. Former Senator and now Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been appointed as the Acting Administrator and many of its grants are in question. I’ll break down: 1. A brief history of USAID 2. Its original mission 3. The reasons behind the current administration’s decision to restructure 4. What the future holds for the agency Two additional videos are included--one featuring Kelly Fraser, a federal grant pro who has managed USAID grants and knows several former USAID employees and/or contractors. The second video looks at US government data on federal grants to USAID. #usaid #federalgrants #grantfunds #trump #elonmusk #governmentfunding #federalgovernment RESOURCES: Kaiser Family Foundation: https://www.kff.org/quick-take/what-is-happening-to-usaid/ BBC: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdd9p8g405no Just Security: https://www.justsecurity.org/107267/can-president-dissolve-usaid-by-executive-order/ USAID Archives: https://2012-2017.usaid.gov/who-we-are/usaid-history Washington Times: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/feb/8/house-republicans-introduce-bill-erase-usaid/ Washington Times: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/feb/7/trump-says-revoked-biden-security-clearance/ Federal News Network: https://federalnewsnetwork.com/reorganization/2025/02/usaid-staffers-are-instructed-to-stay-out-of-the-agencys-washington-headquarters/ ABOUT ME: I’m the founder and CEO of Grants Works and the lead trainer for Grants Works Academy and I have over 18 years of federal grants experience.

    Ep 3 - Elon Musk's DOGE Team and Federal Systems: What’s Really Going On? | Federal Grant Pro Explains
    Aug 7 2025
    WHAT I COVER: In this episode of Federal Grants Explained, I dive into the controversial access Elon Musk and his DOGE team have gained to U.S. federal government payment systems. From the Treasury Department to FEMA, the DOGE team’s actions have raised serious questions about security, transparency, and the potential misuse of sensitive data. I break down key concerns, including: • Who controls federal payment systems? • Why forensic auditors weren’t involved in fraud investigations. • The $80 million FEMA claw back and its implications for federal grants. • The legal and ethical concerns of DOGE accessing sensitive systems without proper clearances. I also explore how these actions could impact federal grantees, including nonprofits and local governments, and what it means for the future of federal funding. With court orders, lawsuits, and audits underway, this is a critical moment for accountability in federal spending. Tune in to understand the risks, the unknowns, and why this story matters to everyone who relies on federal grants. Don’t forget to subscribe for more insights into federal grants and funding under the current administration! #doge #musk #treasurydepartment #federalgrants #fraud #usaid, #federalgovernment #fema #grantfunds #grantfunding #federalagency #federal ABOUT ME: I’m the founder and CEO of Grants Works and the lead trainer for Grants Works Academy and I have over 18 years of federal grants experience.

    Ep 6 - Major Changes Impacting Grantees and Agencies Under Trump Administration | Canceled Grants
    Aug 7 2025
    We’re diving into the biggest changes affecting federal grantees and awarding agencies—from canceled grants and DEI-related scope adjustments to capped indirect costs and increased scrutiny on spending. 🔹Budget Process Breakdown - We’ll clarify key terms like the White House budget request vs. Congressional appropriations—including a step-by-step chart (courtesy of the National Priorities Project) on how funding should work. 🔹 Harvard’s Grant Eligibility Revoked? The saga continues as the U.S. Department of Education declares Harvard ineligible for new federal research grants—plus, the president weighs in on revoking their nonprofit status. 🔹 DEI Initiatives Under Fire - Many grantees are being forced to remove DEI-related work or face grant cancellations. 🔹 Indirect Cost Caps & "Defend the Spend" - New financial restrictions mean grantees must justify every dollar—how will this impact your organization? 🔹 Agency Shake-Ups & Workforce Reductions Delays in NOFOs - Slower awards—what does this mean for future funding? 🔹 Stick Around Till the End for my analysis on how these changes could shape the future of federal grants—and the country. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This video is informational only—based on publicly available data—and not advisory. 👇 WATCH NOW & STAY INFORMED! #FederalGrants #GrantFunding #DEI #NonprofitNews #GovernmentGrants #GrantConsultant #BudgetCuts #HarvardUniversity #GrantsManagement ABOUT ME: I’m the founder and CEO of Grants Works and the lead trainer for Grants Works Academy and I have over 18 years of federal grants experience.
